				<div class="firstBlock"><p>Which US town is popular with generals? <a href="http://galena.org" zt="-o1/XJ" target="_blank" data-component="link" data-source="inlineLink" data-type="externalLink" data-ordinal="1">Galena</a> in Jo Daviess County, Illinois, of course! Nine Civil War generals who settled in this town, including Galena’s favorite son - Ulysses S. Grant. After his victory in 1865, General Grant received a hero’s welcome from the town and was presented with a handsome Italianate-style red brick mansion. <a href="http://www.granthome.com" zt="-o1/XJ" target="_blank" data-component="link" data-source="inlineLink" data-type="externalLink" data-ordinal="2">Grant’s Home</a> is now a National Historic Landmark and you can view its original furnishings including Grant’s favorite chair. To find out more about the 18th President of the United States, you can &nbsp;also the town's Grant’s Leather Store and the Galena &amp; U.S. Grant Museum.</p></div>

<div id="radlinks3" data-num-links="5" data-character-limit="null" data-display-label="false" data-display-inline="true" class="radlinks ads-half"></div>
				<p>But generals aren't the only ones who like this <a href="http://www.galenahistory.org" zt="-o1/XJ" target="_blank" data-component="link" data-source="inlineLink" data-type="externalLink" data-ordinal="3">quinetessential small town</a>. &quot;Conde Nast Taveler&quot; rated it as the “Second Friendliest City in the US” and “14th Friendliest City in the World”, while &quot;Forbes&quot; Magazine listed it one of “America’s Prettiest Towns.”</p>


				<p>Galena derived its name from the rich lead ore or galena (in Latin) deposits, which the original Native Americans used for their body paints. The town is rich in history with eighty-five percent of its buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Step back in time to roam its streets where Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant once walked. Admire its well-preserved unique period architecture heritage ranging from 19th-century commercial-style buildings lining Main Street to the grand residential mansions showcasing the Greek Revival and later Victorian styles.&nbsp;</p>


				<p>One historic landmark not to be missed is the <a href="http://desotohouse.com/" zt="-o1/XJ" target="_blank" data-component="link" data-source="inlineLink" data-type="externalLink" data-ordinal="4">DeSoto House Hotel</a> on Main Street, the oldest operating hotel in Illinois. Since its opening in 1850, the hotel has hosted many major historical events and famous guests such as Mark Twain, Theodore Roosevelt and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Take a free self-guided tour to visit the balcony decorated with red, white and blue bunting from where Abraham Lincoln once gave his speech; rooms 209 and 211 from which Ulysses S. Grant planned and conducted his presidential campaigns; and the Quiet Room where you watch videos about the rich history of Galena and the hotel.</p>


    <div id="adsense2" adsense-numlinks="2" adsense-displaylabel="true" class="adsense-slot adsense ads-half"></div>

The family-owned bistro serves European meals with imported wines and beers at affordable prices.</p>
